WW PickSummerfector 2: Criminal Damage, Defect Defect, Dead Dogs, Warcola, Vorvadoss, The Estranged, Leather Casket, Death A.D.


[CRUST, THRASHING] More crust and thrashing than you can possibly stand this weekend at the multiple-date and -venue Defector Fest. Things get started with a bang around the dinner hour tonight, but save your appetite for some special treats Sunday night at Satyricon. A surprise reunion of Order of the Vulture will provide a fittingly blackened metal attack for fans of Celtic Frost, Darkthrone and Nausea, and the peak of the whole fest is undoubtedly Sunday's headlining set from local veteran doom-punks Tragedy. This group takes the heaviness of long-missed former band His Hero Is Gone and introduces a host of mature refinements from the Rudimentary Peni and Black Flag catalogs. I dare you to get a spot up front and try to keep the moshing throngs from knocking you on your ass. (Also see music feature.) NATHAN CARSON. Backspace 4 pm. $5. All ages.
